Gartan Mother's Lullaby - Paddy O' Connor
Sleep oh babe for the red bee hums
The silent twilight's fall
Eeval from the gray rock comes
To wrap the world in thrall
A lyan van ó my child my joy
My love my heart's desire
The crickets sing you lullaby
Beside the dying fire
Dusk is drawn and the Green Man's thorn
Is wreathed in rings of fog
Siabhra sails his boat 'til morn
Upon the starry bog
A lyan van ó the paly moon
Hath brimmed her cusp in dew
And weeps to hear the sad sleep-tune
I sing my love to you
